That's an incredible webpage. Still not going to read all that, but incredible nonetheless.

This. It's the exact same argument that was being made (maybe still is) against self driving cars. To be honest, I'm looking forward to more AI in healthcare if it can increase diagnosis success rates and improve treatment outcome

This is dirt cheap for Apple. Am I missing something?

I feel second hand embarrassment for IBM. Terrible name, subpar landing page, no mention of coding ability or which LLM "Bob" uses. If you're launching something 2 years late, you've got to do better than this.

Anyone else becoming numb to these updates? I feel like I should be excited about being able to generate almost perfect videos but, I just don't care anymore.

I see. In almost 10 years of using Ruby I can't say that ever bothered me.

You're the engineer, not them - you're being paid to write code that ideally doesn't break - it's your job to explain that tests benefit them. There's very little excuse not to add test coverage as you go along the

I really wish someone would make a version of the opencode desktop application that's as responsive and well-made as Cursor so I can promptly move over.

Zero. Been remote for 8+ years in my career, and there's always another 100% remote job to jump to if you search hard enough and don't settle. Luckily, the longest I've been without work is 3 months, during which time I had

Well, that's because Trump agreed to do that in exchange for campaign donations from Big Oil. I'm still not sure how Americans haven't ousted him.

You're missing the fact that Microsoft reported over $331 billion in total revenue and an operating income exceeding $155 billion - this is a fixable problem. If they're really that cash-strapped at GitHub, then are they planning

> Github is struggling because AI-boosted coding increased the number of commits 14x in the past year, OK so then use the additional revenue to add more resources and employees? What the f*k are they doing over there?

One positive is that solar (and probably other renewables too) prices are plummeting and are now the cheapest way to generate power - so in economic terms, I hope this trend continues and accelerates even more to the point where even fossil

+1 for this! Given Ruby's entire thing is code "written like plain English," I would have expected LLM's to excel with it. I've certainly had awesome results.
